CVE-2024-12619: Insufficient Granularity of Access Control in GitLab

MediumCVSS 6.5 · v3.1—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 26/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.27% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: GitLab GitLab 17.10.1, 17.8.6, 17.9.3.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to GitLab GitLab 17.10.1, 17.8.6, 17.9.3 or later.
